Maybe because you have figured out away to survive hyperinflation in Argentina

Those are real life skills, survival skills are more important than say linear algebra or calculus

I appreciate that Sr :) Funny thing is that I'm able to make it through decently thanks to my skill with algebra AND calculus. I'm an engineer, and I make a living working for companies outside of Argentina. My current work implied solving poiseuille flows for rectangular sections, through calculus, for a very special type of flowmeter, to then proceed to program the sensors processor solely thanks to my algebra skills.

Very impressive!

You have survival skills and mathematical aptitude, the best of both worlds!

I think you are the winner, first place lol

Poiseuille's law, also known as the Hagen-Poiseuille equation?

You are building a fluid transport system?

Sorry I missed your second question. I'm building what's called a "flowmeter", a device that measures flow speed. Depending on the application you need to do that in a specific manner. For instance this application requires high precision for very low flows, for which standard venturis are unfit, so a special method that relies con capillaries is used to get the poiseuille flow, which allows to get more precise and stable measurements for low flow ranges (below the speed at which we breathe).

That same one Sr. The pre-analysis for rectangular sections exists of course, but I had to finish it for my specific case (constant pressure variation). It's simple, but you have to know what you are doing.
